by cinchtail

Cinch's Sandy Catacombs adds a large underground structure to deserts and badlands, where husk spawners sit beside sand that players can farm.

What it does

A Desert Catacombs structure generates in deserts and badlands. It is a jigsaw structure, so each instance is assembled differently, and it contains husk spawners. Husks drop sand when they die, which lets players build classic mob grinders and make sand a renewable resource. Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt, across 13 release versions 1.21 – 26.2, under All rights reserved and not open source.

Key features

  1. Sand from husks

    Husks drop sand on death, so mob grinders built around them produce a steady supply.

  2. Desert Catacombs

    A large, mostly underground structure that appears in deserts and badlands and holds husk spawners.

  3. Unique layouts

    The structure is built from jigsaw pieces, so each one found in a world tends to differ.

What the author says

Using these two new features players are able to make classic mob grinders but for husks. And since husks now drop sand, sand is now fully farmable and renewable. But even if you don't care about farming sand this is still a great mod to use for vanilla+ players since the new structure is of such high quality, and…
